Ok so it all started when I was reading a book set in mid evil England, and the character mentioned oat cakes with honey, and I thought to myself “I must have these!” Then I thought more on it and realized they would make a great breakfast item to keep in the house.

So I scoured the internet and came up with about 50 variety of oat cakes – sigh – damn you internet why can’t anything be easy. And they all ranged from a pancake consistency to a cracker consistency – neither of which I wanted. I wanted a cookie/shortbread consistency.

So I made up my own – let’s now say there are 51 varieties to oatcakes on the internet.

Mix dry ingredients (including brown sugar if that’s what you are using)

Add in eggs, applesauce and coconut oil, berries and nuts
If you use honey etc instead of brown sugar add that in now

If it’s too think slowly add a couple of teaspoons of water

You can spoon these onto a non stick cookie sheet – or use those nifty muffin top pans

Bake at 300 for 15 minutes until they are firm and don’t crumble apart

Crumble in your yogurt, eat them as cookies, have them before you go workout – very versatile little snacks – very low in sugar and high in fiber. Also I make some of them somewhat bite sized to keep as quick pick me ups.
